A Keyhole into Burma - Betel nut chewing, it's as gross as it looks {Gadling}
Jul 28th 2008 10:52PM I am shocked that you are attempting to write a book on Burma while being so utterly misinformed about betel chewing and its history. Your description of it alone echoes those of British colonial 'ethnologists' of the 19th century. I suppose that is intruiging by itself, but one would have hoped that the understanding of foreign cultures had progressed a bit since then.
